Before you tell me that my paint job will fall off in 2 months, let me say that people have done this and had it last for years without any fading...
Anyway, I did a ' paint job' with Rustoleum enamel on my old car, but I'm having trouble getting a good shine on most of it, however, I have gotten a very nice shine on the thin strip of metal on the top of the hatch, so I HAVE gotten a good shine on part of it so far, therefore I know it can be shined.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm not doing anything different on this part of the car than when I polished and got a good result with the exception of number of coats (there are more coats on this panel I'm having trouble with).
Here's what I'm using;
-Wool Bonnet
-Hand Wetsanding with 1000, then 1500, then 2000 (it was fairly flat, at least good enough for an old car)
-Cheap Random Orbit single speed polisher
-Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound first
-Turtle Wax Polishing Compound second
I've got a dull sheen, but it's so dull it's only visibly shiny if you look at it from the side.
p.s. If you can help, I would be happy to give out my number, it would be greatly appreciated, just email my account.
